Summary:
"We are here to discuss a word that has been divisive and used to dehumanize and remove legitimacy from a host of people, making them invisible to all access of society. What we have gathered here in this film is a collection of voices from people who you might not ever had heard from to tell you, in their own words, whether they think it's okay to be used. Whether they think there is a certain group of people who can use it, whether other people can't use it. We'll talk to the old and we'll talk to the young, all voices, on this divisive word that we hear in music, literature and so forth. We invite you to sit back, absorb, and listen to the myriad of voices about the use of this word and its impact in our society."--Introduction.
